'''Benares''' (now '''VaransiVaranasi'''), the Holy City of the Hindus, gives its name to a district and division in the [[United Provinces]] of India. It is one of the most ancient cities in the world.
It was the first station on the [[Oudh and Rohilkhand Railway]], after the latter's easternmost connection with the [[East Indian Railway]] at [[Moghal Sarai]], as well as a terminus for the [[Bengal and North-Western Railway]].
